The new evangelization needs to take on the sexual revolution if it has any hope of making an impact anywhere in the Western world.I believe everything that the Catholic Church teaches in her Catechism.

Dolan's Jan 25 op-ed

I searched around the internets, and found Abp. Dolan's Jan 25 WSJ op-ed, without hacking my way through the Wall Street Journal's paywall. Go and read it.

One thing he points out, which far too many people neglect or allow themselves to disregard, is this:

The rule forces insurance companies to provide these services without a co-pay, suggesting they are “free”—but it is naïve to believe that. There is no free lunch, and you can be sure there’s no free abortion, sterilization or contraception. There will be a source of funding: you.

There is no free lunch, anywhere. Somebody always pays for whatever you may be given. In far too many cases, it is you, in ways you will not be able to see.

Comment Policy

Comments are moderated. First, because this helps me find new ones. Second, because I've had comments that were nothing more than a means to link to a business site of which I do not approve (e.g., "Nice blog" or "Nice post" with the link in the commenter's name or the post itself).Third, because some comments are personal attacks. I don't tolerate that crap. In fact, it was an anonymous F-bomb directed at another commenter that motivated me to enable comment moderation.

License and Attribution

All of my good works are possible only through the grace of God. In other words, they are gifts given freely to me by Him. Thus, all attributions are to God. And since He has given all so freely to me, how can I then selfishly not share His gifts with others? Thus, I impose no license on any of this work, and declare it all to be in the public domain.

Those who derive from it are on their own, legally, morally, and spiritually, though I will pray for them all, and ask Our Lady of Perpetual Help to do the same.

About Me

Catholic libertarian. Where the two conflict, Catholic tends to win. I have a website and an old blog. While my intent is to focus on heroes and heroism, that will not prevent me from ranting about whatever thoughts are so recurring in my head as to be annoying.
